Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great doctor, Great staff
I've been seeing Dr. Schten for a couple of years now. It is obvious to me that Dr. Schten and his office really care about what they are doing and, most importantly, care about me as a patient. Dr. Schten listens, knows what he's doing, and is very personable. I can also say the same for his staff. They are responsive, answer the phone and return calls and go out of their way to help. Very rare in today's medical landscape, at least, in my experience.

Dr. Schnten not only listens well, he also explains what needs to be done very well. He also allows time for patient to fully ask questions before giving a full and comprehensive answers. During the procedure I had, he was very focused on the procedure and at the same time let me know what was happening and how long it would take. I recommend him most highly and would not consider going to any one else for the next procedures my condition calls for.
